Born To Be Alive



Julie Depardieu, 2006




We were born to be alive
We were born to be alive
Born, born to be alive
(Won't you be alive)
You see you were born
Born, born
(Born to be alive)
People ask me why
I never find a place to stop
And settle down, down, down
But I never wanted all those things
People need to justify
Their lives, lives, lives
You see you were
Born, born, born to be alive
(Born to be alive)
You see you were
Born, born, born
(Born to be alive)
It's good to be alive
To be alive
To be alive
It's good to be alive
To be alive
To be alive
It's good to be alive
Time was on my side
When I was running down the street
It was so fine, fine, fine
A suitcase and an old guitar
And something new to occupy
My mind, mind, mind

'Woman' - Wolfmother


Woman
You know you're a woman
You got to be a woman
I got the feeling of love

When you're talking to me
You see right through me
I got the feeling of love

She's a woman
You know what I mean
You better listen
Listen to me
She's gonna set you free

Well you're kinda looking at me
Like I've got to set you free
You know I can't be nobody

Child In Time



Yngwie Malmsteen, 1996




Sweet child in time, you'll see the line
Line that's drawn between the Good and the Bad
See the blind man, he's shooting at the world
Bullets flying, ooh taking toll
If you've been bad - Oh Lord I bet you have
And you've not been hit oh by flying lead
You'd better close your eyes, you'd better bow your head
Wait for the ricochet

I'm cryin' for you day and night
Oh, I wanna hear you sing

'Listen To The Music' - The Doobie Brothers


Don't you feel it growin', day by day
People gettin' ready for the news
Some are happy, some are sad
Oh, we got to let the music play
What the people need
Is a way to make 'em smile
It ain't so hard to do if you know how
Gotta get a message
Get it on through
Oh, now mama's go'n' to after 'while
Oh, oh, listen to the music
Oh, oh, listen to the music
Oh, oh, listen to the music
All the time

Well I know, you know better
Everything I say
Meet me in the country for a day
We'll be happy
And we'll dance
Oh, we're gonna dance our blues away
And if I'm feelin' good to you
And you're feelin' good to me
There ain't nothin' we can't do or say
Feelin' good, feeling fine
Oh, baby, let the music play

Oh, oh, listen to the music
Oh, oh, listen to the music
Oh, oh, listen to the music
All the time

Like a lazy flowing river
Surrounding castles in the sky
And the crowd is growing bigger
List'nin' for the happy sounds
And I got to let them fly

Have You Ever Seen The Rain?



The Jeevas, 2003




Someone told me long ago, there's a calm before the storm.
I know, and it's been comin' for some time.
When it's over, so they say, it'll rain a sunny day.
I know, shinin' down like water.

I want to know, have you ever seen the rain?
I want to know, have you ever seen the rain
comin' down on a sunny day?

Yesterday, and days before, sun is cold and rain is hard.
I know, been that way for all my time.
'Til forever on it goes through the circle fast and slow,
I know, and it can't stop, I wonder.

'Inevitable' - Anberlin


Do you remember when we were just kids
And cardboard boxes took us miles from what we would miss
Schoolyard conversations taken to heart
And laughter took the place of everything we knew we were not

I wanna break every clock
The hands of time could never move again
We could stay in this moment (stay in this moment)
For the rest of our lives
Is it over now hey, hey, is it over now

I wanna be your last, first kiss
That you'll ever have
I wanna be your last, first kiss

Amazing how life turns out the way that it does
We end up hurting the worst, the only ones we really love

I wanna break every clock
The hands of time could never move again
We could stay in this moment (stay in this moment)
For the rest of our lives
Is it over now hey, hey, is it over now

I wanna be your last, first kiss
That you'll ever have
I wanna be your last, first kiss

Is it over now hey, hey, is it over now
Is it over how hey, hey, it's not over now

I wanna be your last, first kiss
That you'll ever have (that you'll ever have)
I wanna be your last, first love (that you'll ever have)
Till you're lying here beside me with arms and eyes open wide
I wanna be your last, first kiss for all time

I Love Rock N' Roll



Joan Jett & The Blackhearts, 1981




I saw him dancin' there by the record machine
I knew he must a been about seventeen
The beat was goin' strong
Playin' my favorite song
An' I could tell it wouldn't be long
Till he was with me, yeah me
And I could tell it wouldn't be long
Till he was with me, yeah me, singin'

I love rock n' roll
So put another dime in the jukebox, baby
I love rock n' roll
So come and take your time and dance with me

He smiled so I got up and asked for his name
That don't matter, he said,
'Cause it's all the same

Said can I take you home where we can be alone

An' next we were movin' on
He was with me, yeah me
Next we were movin' on
He was with me, yeah me, singin'

Estrella Invitada #28


Dicen que "lo bueno, si breve, dos veces bueno". Pues, como nuestro Gramolero @danigp89 no quiere decepcionaros, ha hecho una de las entrevistas más directas que hemos tenido en el blog. Esperamos que le conozcáis un poco más con lo que nos ha contado:



1. Grupo/artista favorito y Canción favorita

Mi grupo favorito ahora mismo es The Doors.
Y la canción preferida la de "Touch Me", de The Doors. Y también "Feo, fuerte y formal", de Loquillo.


2. ¿Qué disco tienes rayado de escucharlo miles de veces?

El de "Plastic Ono Band", de John Lennon. Lo tengo bastante rayado, en realidad.


3. ¿Te gusta hacer más cosas mientras escuchas música o te desconcentra?

A mí, la verdad, es que me desconcentra para estudiar. Pero me encanta escuchar música mientras conduzco, hago deporte o simplemente estando tirado en el sofá.


4. ¿Hay algún género musical que no soportes?

No aguanto el Hardstyle, el "Poky" y, en condiciones sobrias, el Reggaetón. Fuí el único de mi grupo de amigos que no sucumbió al "Poky".


5. Aprovechando que eres futbolero, ¿Serías capaz de decirme rápidamente tres músicos/cantantes del Atleti?

Sabina, Rosendo y Dani Martín.


6. ¿Cuál ha sido el mejor concierto al que has asistido?

El de Ska-p de 2008, en la Cubierta de Leganés.


7. ¿Te gusta cantar? ¿Te hubiera gustado formar algún grupo de música?

Sí a todo. Me gustaría cantar y tener un grupo de música, pero mis habilidades para cantar o tocar instrumentos son nulas.


8. ¿Cuál es tu género musical favorito? ¿Alguna vez te han mirado raro cuando has dicho la música que te gusta?

El que más el Rock. Por totra parte, ahora no me miran mal cuando he dicho qué música me gusta, pero a los 16 años sí.


9. ¿Cuándo te quieres sentir bien qué escuchas?

The Doors. Aunque también Estopa me anima bastante


10. ¿Hay alguna canción que no puedas quitarte de la cabeza últimamente?

El "Ola k ase", de Lory Money será una frikada pero tiene 'algo' que se me queda incrustado en la mente.


EXTRA: ¿Qué canción nos recomendarías para no parar de escuchar esta semana?

Me gusta mucho una canción de Lana de Rey que se llama "Ride".

'Wind Of Change' - Scorpions


I follow the Moskva
Down to Gorky Park
Listening to the wind of change
An August summer night
Soldiers passing by
Listening to the wind of change

The world is closing in
Did you ever think
That we could be so close, like brothers
The future's in the air
I can feel it everywhere
Blowing with the wind of change

Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow dream away
in the wind of change

Walking down the street
Distant memories
Are buried in the past forever
I follow the Moskva
Down to Gorky Park
Listening to the wind of change

Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow share their dreams
With you and me
Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow dream away
in the wind of change

The wind of change
Blows straight into the face of time
Like a stormwind that will ring the freedom bell
For peace of mind
Let your balalaika sing
What my guitar wants to say
